Actually, I got to checking after posting last night, and there's enough people on the list to last for twenty years. My guess is that there will be enough cancellations and whatnot to get it down to fifteen. I suspect sooner or later the permit system is going to get a serious revision, because that sort of thing is ridiculous. If I want to do the big ditch on a commercial trip, I can still get on one this year -- paying $2500, though. Like they used to say on those used car ads, "Money talks, nobody walks . . ."

Well, I always knew there was some good use for a raft . . .
